Ace Frehley - New York Groove - Rangers Opener Oct. 15 2010

[spiderhulk63]

The video sucks, but the performance is not bad, considering he is standing on the ice doing an intro at a fu*king hockey game. Most of those hockey morons don't even own radios or CD players and have no idea what KISS is.

[Daskeladden1]

@spiderhulk63 ha ha, "the performance is not bad" you kisstards make excuses for everything. And nobody uses cd's anymore, moron

[MrKolt2112]

@spiderhulk63 pull your head out of your ass

[Pacemakerguy14]

@spiderhulk63 I'm a BIG KISS fan and dude this sucked, plus he wasn't even on the ice just in the corner hahahaah

[pettibonnotginn]

[colepamelamrs]

Way better back in the day... Still <3 them though

[10monike]

ace es grandioso

[MrHeavyMetalKid]

Not a great performance but it's his.

[33niggerkiller]

so this is what you call not kiss without, dont let they make fun on Rock n roll fan' IQ

[CherrySwitchblade13]

:( I wish Ace wouldn't do this crap ... it looks bad ...

[FuckYouPayMe5150]

All them drugs he did all them years Fucked him up! lol

[BigChiefLtd1]

An off night? That's putting it mildly. Quit making excuses for the guy. He's supposed to be a professional, and it's obvious he "mailed it in" and the mail got delivered before he did.

[mammo8369]

this was SOOOOOO bad they cut it off air.....thats how LOW ace's career has gotten. he MIMES at hockey games and still fucks it up !!!!....i bet 99 percent of these ACE FAN BOYS still think ace wrote new york grove HAHAHAHA......written by rus ballad, first performed by HELLO in 75... ace is merely a VERY VERY bad karaoke singer and an even worse guitarist. i bet my post will now make 100's of ace fan WIKKI who wrote new york grove..LOOOSERS !!!!

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

@mammo8369 Written in 74 I believe but whatever

[67fasty]

Agrred, great song, terrible performance!

[Love4SK]

new york was embarrased this night

[ibanezgeorge]

damn that was pretty bad

[SUPERSOAPPP]

watch any of his other videos from recently hes grand ,just an off day or somthin on this one, everyone has them so fuck it

[steve51704000]

I notice Ace really loves to flip his hair. I mean all the time, he's flipping that hair.

[timm441]

Not his best, but he's still the best.

[tatethompson1234]

You spelled his name wrong. It's Ace Frehley

[VincentXMoon]

sorry,but this is down under !

[LDZPLEN]

he sounds like george costanza lol

[38zambrano]

i'm a massive Kiss fan, but this was just stinky all around. Yes, I do play guit, bass drums and keys, mainly because I was handed Kiss Alive at 8 yrs old, so even tho the boys are my biggest influence, it made me sad to watch this.

[grantorino2009]

Funny to read the comments about all the people trying to make excuses for Ace. He's the drunk uncle at the family reunion that everyone still believes is sober. So, instead of it being Ace's fault that this sucks, like the other band members have been telling you all for years, it's the building's fault...wah. So, it has come to this. I can see where this is better than being in KISS. Next thing you know, he'll fall off the stage drunk...oh, wait. The egomaniac has already done that.

[14KISS1973]

Ace sounds like crap

[apestasguey]

Every musician fucks up ask Eddie van halen.except for maybe Randy (rip).good idea bad preparation

[KISS1975]

Also no one booed I was at that Game and you could hear the backing track was off Ace probably ciuldn't hear it to Stnc up with it!!

[KISS1975]

In all fairness to Ace that had the original playing in the background you can hear it! If you know anything about PA systems it can throw anyone off! Blame Dolan and the Garden not Ace!

[RazzleDazzle9410]

Booed out of the fucking building

[pplevrit]

I was actually at this game. He did finish the song but was violently booed throughout. It reached the point where you actually started to get uncomfortable because of how bad his performance was.

[cranie4]

Wow..not good. Not good at all and I love Ace.

[paulstanleyismylife]

i love ace but this is just messed up

[skipplet]

this is like really bad karaoke.

[jamesdobrincic]

Ummm......You guys know that Ace doesnt play majority of the parts live. Watch any video of him singing it with KISS. Paul plays the rhythm, ace only plays the fills and solo in New York Groove. Dont diss him, god damn, learn your shit before you have a go at him

[Malstag21]

Can you really blame him that this wasn't his best? I mean, he didn't have a band with him... It would have rocked if he had, I'm sure this wasn't easy to do on his own with only a recording.

[LeMcCHarStar4ever]

Oh my God, Ace Frehley and a Ranger's game?! That's, that's heaven right there! I LOOOOOOVE that guitar!

[kidjr27]

Prescription drugs mixed with alcohol will make you have the balls to give a shitty performance like this and not care..

[InfiniteWhizBang]

I want to hear Christopher Walken sing this song.

[3inthemornin]

I forgot guitar in between a and then.someone who might not know what i mean"I made a reply" to a comment!!!!!!!!!!!

[waffenamt7]

Ace is awesome but, EPIC fail!

[ItsMeThatKoolGuy]

I love him, don't get me wrong. But this wasn't very good

[14KISS1973]

he didnt do that good. like he usauly does

[AAA4509]

I'm sure he got thru the rest of the song just fine, to all the critics, you're entitled to your opinion and it's easy to criticize, can any of you even play a guitar? how successful are you? is your name instantly recognizable? enough said.

[Daskeladden1]

@AAA4509 So what you actually are saying is that: If a doctor do a operation on your knee it does not matter if he do the wrong leg cause he is a doctor and you are "little you". With your argumentation only rich and famous people have the right to an opinion.....That called elitism

[AAA4509]

@Daskeladden1 No, that's not what i'm saying at all, you completely misunderstood what I said and i'm not getting into some kind of long winded discussion about this.

I was making a statement, it went over your head, fine, now you want to get into semantics, i'm not doing that.

[Atreyufolife]

@Daskeladden1 this guys an ace troll and a Gene cock sucker no need to listen to him and his childish opinions

[Daskeladden1]

@Atreyufolife who is an Ace troll and a Gene cocksucker?

[Atreyufolife]

@Daskeladden1 you you try to find many vids to rip on ace

[Daskeladden1]

@Atreyufolife bullshit

[wagz420]

@Daskeladden1 im sorry your arguement with that comment by AAA4509 is just retarded not the same thing at all

[NYRangerfan30]

@AAA4509 I play guitar, and I'm quite good at it but I don't want to attempt to make it my career. This performance was horrible, plain and simple. No disrespect to him, but it sucked and we all know it.

[AAA4509]

@NYRangerfan30 No performer alive has a flawless performance every time, this wasn't one of Ace's better performances true, it doesn't take away from his playing , he had an off night, it happens, he's only human.

[chrisguido]

@AAA4509 Just because we aren't all famous rock stars doesn't mean we can't criticize this guy for a horrid performance. I know I'm not a successful guitar player, and I know my name isn't easily recognizable but the fact of the matter remains: this was just awful.

[AAA4509]

@chrisguido It wasn't one of Ace's better performances, agreed, but it also doesn't define his playing thoughout his career, he simply had an off night, it happens, no big deal, he is still a good guitar player.

[TNO73]

@AAA4509 Dude I love Ace as much as anybody, but this was a piss poor performance.

[rrtodd95]

@AAA4509 On top of that, how many people can you say have done as many drugs, women and gallons of booze and where still vertical let alone alive to play.

[LLPinney1969]

Quite a guy, Ace is, but this performance just won't do...

[TheBestYears1996]

good lord. i wanna know how much he got paid for this gig.

[minmariahehe]

he use playback that´s sad :(

[Jay79504]

that is such a bad performance it embarrassing me as a KISS fan. WTF was he thinking! Poor guy, he just made Kiss look like shit.

[Atreyufolife]

@Jay79504 Kiss is shit these days every artist has a not so great performance.

[TastySoda]

i was there for the first time then im also not from the us so that was pretty dissapointing xP

[onearmedlottery]

get off the f*cking stage

[willminkorea2010]

Not good, rock fans

[SydbarF]

Im sure he is sick as hell of that damn Russ Ballard tune....plus hes almost 60 now..after a life of hard living...I think he gets it up just fine......and if it was me ..I wouldnt have put my heart and soul into something that the damn announcers were gonna cut into after 45 seconds anyway! He made good bank and went home to his prune juice, Readers Digest, and renewed his membership in the Old Fart Club! ACE FREHLEY LONG LIVE THE KING!

[ClassicRockfan79]

he sounds like Ace, still sounds the same as he did in the 70s. hes got some bad timing here for damn sure, but atleast he dosent have to kiss genes ass anymore.

[foshizzlejoee]

I was actually at the home opener for the Rangers when he performed, I was excited to see him, cause I'm a huge KISS fan, but man, he was booed beyond belief, what a terrible return it was to MSG for Ace Frehley.

[NEWYORKSTORM13]

Dude ace sounds sooo bored doing this song hes not even in key ....& to say his voice is better than paul's maybe your opinion. but hes never had a great voice to begin with like paul has, so naturally he wont lose as much as paul might have...apparently youre an ace fan & have no liking or give paul any real credibility to paul as we been on this topic before. as for cutting the song short artists usually are only alotted a certain time frame. so in essence end it before it drags out

[southparkfan2717]

Ace, for the love of god. Come back to KISS where you belong.

[NEWYORKSTORM13]

my friend ace going back2kiss will never happen again,ace&peter left a 2nd time4some sh*tsure reason wether problems w/paul&gene being thrown back out/left on their own terms.possibly all cause of the reunion tour they all knew they stood great chance2make out like bandits financially&possibly knew the tour would fade away2get out while the going was good.its the main reason why they wont release any new material as a band they dont have it in them anymore,thayer did nice job in kiss' essence

[traxxas1234567890]

ace im sorry to say it but your loseing it bad

[NEWYORKSTORM13]

@traxxas1234567890 AAAAMEN LOL....someone tell ace to stick to playing guitar lol

[FrosredZiggy]

OMFG, Ace with an Epi? That's a sight I never thought I'd see, lol.

[krevice]

embarrassing. ozzy singing at the cubs game was cute this is just kinda sad

[MrMarcoisgod]

@krevice i remember that my friend and it was god awful.he sounded like someone who had parksinson's with amnesia.

[ohio1968javelin]

This is not great but Ace is ,,,,,,man hes proved his self year ago.

[DreadWeissenborn]

Dont worry ace, your still better then fucking gene!

[NEWYORKSTORM13]

you should listen to kulick's BK3 gene's on it and sounds pretty good on aint gonna die

[b4hm3r]

His voice doesnt sound too bad, just live every other live performance hes ever done.

ever.

that guitar tone sounds like shit, and he should never consider playing with a backing track instead of a band ever again.

[brendinrurak]

It would have been great with an actual band.

[Danjelo]

I think hes drunk. Must be, cause he sludders and forgot the lyrics :(

[heavymetal4ever90]

it would sound better a LITTLE bit better with drums

[lem1968a1]

Ace never wrote that lame song. but they make him play it because it became popular. He is better in concert then doing sporting events unless he's doing the star spangled like the giants game. Ace should have lipsyced the original version like kiss has done on ocassion for this TV crap

[sticksbass]

@lem1968a1 at least he didnt say f you' after everybody was like 'so? after the introduction.

[portnoyfan521]

I was there, he was crap, so was the violin guy who did Kashmir. It was sooo bad.

[NegFi]

kids, don't do drugs...

[Daskeladden1]

His

voice is better than Paul's that for sure....

[TheBestYears1996]

@Daskeladden1 his voice never used to be this good though. When he sang his voice cracked a lot and couldnt hit high notes. But now its like omg!

[3inthemornin]

@Daskeladden1 No,you would be wrong there!Ace can play better then he can sing.Paul,on the other hand can play and has a beautiful voice when singing his love songs!!i do think ace,can play a better then paul or gene!Ace can shred a guitar!!!Ace has come along way,and i wish him all the best the lord could give. God bless:)

[Eveneiedeg]

Guys, His voice is still young and good for his age! Rock on Ace! We love ya!

[thegothickillerclown]

Thats T.V. for you... but Cool ACE!!!

[Daskeladden1]

I don't know the routine in NHL but it is probably a reason why they cut to the reporters so early in the song...

[RokDAWG1]

I LOVE ACE, but OUCH

[mrfenway]

Pretty lame...What else do u expect from the NHL!>?

[RideTheLightning101]

oh jesus.

[sekim65]

That performance was as bad an Anomaly! Way to f*** up New York Groove, Ace.

[NEWYORKSTORM13]

anomaly is god damn awful !! just a couple of songs were ok, also helps when you have all those years of not putting anything out & polishing up the production, cant imagine how long it took to make his each & every song. and getting back into singing whenever he was sober to sound halfway decent.

[pwoznic]

FAIL

[classicrock955]

Sounds like good 'ol Space Ace took one too many swigs of Grandpa's cough syrup before this performance..Yikes!

[lem1968a1]

@classicrock955 he dont drink and i hope he dont go back after this

[NEWYORKSTORM13]

@lem1968a1 maybe after this performance he oughtta go back to drinking lol..it was horrible to say the least

[brownfightfanatic]

comical!!!!!!!!!

[SeanAveryBroadway]

This was BRUTAL, lol!

[TMongos]

This is the worst performance I ever heard by anyone. That's for shure.
